On Oct.19th, I was rushed to the hospital with stomach pains that had lasted for 3 days. Turns out I got appendicitus so I had to have emergency surgery just 5 days before walking down the long aisle into the rest of my life. I was unable to follow the doctors orders of rest, no straining, and no lifting until the 10 staples could be removed in 2 weeks. So I had to take one for the team as a determined bride and just took my pain pills just to get through those 2 weeks. 1 week to prepare for the wedding and the next was our honeymoon.</div><div>I was pulled aside in the airport and thoroughly searched due to my 10 staples. Thanks terrorist for making our lives ridiculous. </div><div>Many things went out the window the day of the wedding and you pretty much can't count on what people say they will do even if you are paying them...so my advice is be ready to just go on without whatever you need to and not worry about it as hard as it may be. </div><div>In the end, we had a great day and a great honeymoon and lots of memories we will laugh about in our old age.</div><div><br /></div>Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-58031163140431516682009-09-22T13:57:00.000-07:002009-09-22T14:00:54.145-07:00Bliss Magazine is Out!!!<img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWC5u0P_IMATE0s_uK3DCZNSTuPIkAHrdbpDKyVTjjKUKyHHFDt_mcuUEJw-xw_dkXvW9fnvg78o0BNupeymveFJop5UOmlArwuXIE6asbDoIRXGMTxe57ULanYoI-6MPOdC0bsHWmfvl3/s320/bliss.jpg" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 130px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384399146944315458" />Here it is...Bliss Magazine.

Many of my items are now displayed at Tesi Bridal Boutique in Ventnor, NJ. Since many of my items are one of a kind pieces I took down the listings from etsy for the items that are now for sale at Tesi Bridal. Although the feathers and many of the flowers can be ordered in a custom order the center may be different if there is no other of that exact one. Feel free to inquire about various vintage accents that can be added as I am always replenishing my inventory.

I believe it will be out on September 21st and of course I will post lots of pictures:)Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-19829541365986975322009-08-08T12:45:00.000-07:002009-08-08T12:55:42.879-07:00New Items, New Pictures, New Look<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTscgfK-JDGLT254WuzmXX_LEFS7WER7DknCHCGUQEsTKamDE09HldhFbhRyLGAaDxkTXcpZHrFQ_CQcZajLqQECN-iJpZIt5CjyINWvRPQLHRhXRi2J8a72g_C2E-zmQoati3DZMAU44s/s1600-h/parkkim+007b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTscgfK-JDGLT254WuzmXX_LEFS7WER7DknCHCGUQEsTKamDE09HldhFbhRyLGAaDxkTXcpZHrFQ_CQcZajLqQECN-iJpZIt5CjyINWvRPQLHRhXRi2J8a72g_C2E-zmQoati3DZMAU44s/s400/parkkim+007b.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367683563566903714" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaoxQIPlwjzi3n7NXin-H8OGgm9JezvoYmsDSOw3p32KHTJ_ppx1sTtEy4wGKvMYbh7iG0pjF7OfpOAcJ-U_WCZZGf8gW9-r1PWDdbFF4w8UwMMW1xsb1Ft82-qcsXkSvbBCL2G_Odq0Q0/s1600-h/parkkim+375b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaoxQIPlwjzi3n7NXin-H8OGgm9JezvoYmsDSOw3p32KHTJ_ppx1sTtEy4wGKvMYbh7iG0pjF7OfpOAcJ-U_WCZZGf8gW9-r1PWDdbFF4w8UwMMW1xsb1Ft82-qcsXkSvbBCL2G_Odq0Q0/s400/parkkim+375b.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367683231722840498" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTqag5hL7-0hqA61AQrHkLpIWZJQgrnxQW4F46WAphLMh96N7kqB3PBqJdL3-rTWer5JVufBJlnDGRrGZ8bzOkhsGPac5tPPFoQZpIVMsASCGYyljDRexONYFKhDysYhi46cB6Fd_wY66F/s1600-h/parkkim+342b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 399px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTqag5hL7-0hqA61AQrHkLpIWZJQgrnxQW4F46WAphLMh96N7kqB3PBqJdL3-rTWer5JVufBJlnDGRrGZ8bzOkhsGPac5tPPFoQZpIVMsASCGYyljDRexONYFKhDysYhi46cB6Fd_wY66F/s400/parkkim+342b.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367682587281165730" border="0" /></a><br />I've been a busy bee working on the new look for the DonnaElla Shop.

I am so excited to have all these wonderful brides enter into the Birdcage Veil Giveaway. There is still 20 days to go to enter into the contest, so if you haven't go ahead and do that now.<br />Thank you all for your wonderful compliments and the best of luck.<br />Here's a couple more veils to add to your palette.<br /><br />The first one is the full head birdcage veil that comes adjustable so you may get the desired size, style, and effect that is right for you. This particular one has been hand dyed to a tea-stained color. Many dresses are more of a tint of brown where as ivory is more of a tint of yellow, therefore an ivory veil may not look as good with that color dress....so......I came up with the solution. So far, it has received excellent reviews. This color can be applied to any of the veils I make.<br /><br />The second picture is of a traditional birdcage veil <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8b0r8IDR8aKfMFW6hgLXCmgYM2RYAgpHPlf6hgaQ2FblQ9C0Tqz4QING78CA6TyWnp9rh7aSb2nWktsU01sK4Q2ptu3wG3USOLbaG2JFcYCIp8kpLgc1M_JRRJTQJHLp_Ak0iWM3JqTln/s1600-h/veils+047.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8b0r8IDR8aKfMFW6hgLXCmgYM2RYAgpHPlf6hgaQ2FblQ9C0Tqz4QING78CA6TyWnp9rh7aSb2nWktsU01sK4Q2ptu3wG3USOLbaG2JFcYCIp8kpLgc1M_JRRJTQJHLp_Ak0iWM3JqTln/s320/veils+047.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354245457531145890" border="0" /></a><br />that attaches at the front or top of the crown and<br /> falls elegantly over the face.Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-26891602359741041832009-06-21T05:53:00.000-07:002009-06-21T06:29:18.379-07:00BIRDCAGE VEIL -- GIVEAWAY!!Post a comment to sign up for the Birdcage Veil Giveaway.

Unforetunately, it was not 100% what I wanted and the pick-ups on the dress made her look like she was wearing a mushroom cloud. My dress has beautiful pick-ups with pearls and beads at each point so I wanted her's to at least have pick-ups like mine.<br /><br />I added pearls from my dress extras that they included with my dress as the "just in case it's needed" ziploc. I had to order her dress larger than she is since she is not a toothpick and trimmed off a substantial amount so she could possibly walk in it.<br /><br />Without further adieu...<br /><br />Here is before<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPw1y-CCt7bIldnhuapHh_-8aA-g5C4AqODtgROXZUNfNF0YZg56Ww7DnRGg8EYCdKz3SPVqjhcQbTioXsq77mN2P3cn25VpU43mv-RR_I-zygVeD2NHJAdVQIJbrnM2953qQbcd5tcAF_/s1600-h/flowergirlalterations1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPw1y-CCt7bIldnhuapHh_-8aA-g5C4AqODtgROXZUNfNF0YZg56Ww7DnRGg8EYCdKz3SPVqjhcQbTioXsq77mN2P3cn25VpU43mv-RR_I-zygVeD2NHJAdVQIJbrnM2953qQbcd5tcAF_/s320/flowergirlalterations1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349145599900279426" border="0" /></a><br /><br />And Here is my daughter with the alterations...I still have to shorten the straps but you get the idea.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5_LcXZsRTx6qtpu5amLtEUq6f-4IyNQyH7pkEHED7GIrvqkaO9j0DKgt84YbniTPc4qhsbyvejlgcuN_zxuR4xqnnVkN1v9Bu-0077H9SAX1FEjzjkfjlcUG_z8Hh2JrLSTATMVPFXGe2/s1600-h/flowergirlalterations2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5_LcXZsRTx6qtpu5amLtEUq6f-4IyNQyH7pkEHED7GIrvqkaO9j0DKgt84YbniTPc4qhsbyvejlgcuN_zxuR4xqnnVkN1v9Bu-0077H9SAX1FEjzjkfjlcUG_z8Hh2JrLSTATMVPFXGe2/s320/flowergirlalterations2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349145707818447186" border="0" /></a>Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-33910311537435627672009-06-17T16:31:00.000-07:002009-06-17T16:36:14.908-07:00Another Great DealI found some more clearanced items and it kind of inspired me for the wedding some more...so I ended up deciding on making CD's for everyone of "Our" songs. We really do have way more than one song in our relationship. We always have been very into music and dancing so it is really fitting for the wedding. I found these cute little box sets of Wedding CD labels, sleeves, and stickers for that finished look and I just couldn't help but to buy them at $5 for 25. I never pass up a deal, lol:) Plus I can't wait to start working on them. I have alot to do in 4 months....tick tock, tick tock, is getting louder every day.

I am realizing that I am coming up on the 4 month mark and I have so much to do still that I am starting to panic a bit. I am a list maker by nature so I guess I will have to start making a list to feel better although I may feel more overwhelmed. So much to do and don't know where to start.Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-43952106776481948592009-06-05T17:38:00.000-07:002009-06-05T17:50:40.684-07:00Bridal Wrist Cuffs<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_D61omD0ogC3VYKxWtNjivg973-GodOHhVf9Oipq7lOEZnhFgqWgnFs4AghOKhPr0qyB_oq8gB-NTLpwDA9DbQBAwF7xwMkXt_PWxTacZ55Rj5YqmuUe9iqABr5HNFPySwGog61H_4CPf/s1600-h/cuffs+017.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_D61omD0ogC3VYKxWtNjivg973-GodOHhVf9Oipq7lOEZnhFgqWgnFs4AghOKhPr0qyB_oq8gB-NTLpwDA9DbQBAwF7xwMkXt_PWxTacZ55Rj5YqmuUe9iqABr5HNFPySwGog61H_4CPf/s320/cuffs+017.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344010571617539202" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-_pQb9kJAcJ9dy63WeDsBaeB8LsBi0Du4_UJ9Oe705LAgf1paXiWAjCYnvmq-BI58Vo5FOTi0fFXDv7vTl7UhQo8KyOfgIjUKeyrGeUKU2raZMfg3sD5utJwyFo9bq2PFI6rF6x0wYPvG/s1600-h/cuffs+001.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-_pQb9kJAcJ9dy63WeDsBaeB8LsBi0Du4_UJ9Oe705LAgf1paXiWAjCYnvmq-BI58Vo5FOTi0fFXDv7vTl7UhQo8KyOfgIjUKeyrGeUKU2raZMfg3sD5utJwyFo9bq2PFI6rF6x0wYPvG/s320/cuffs+001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344010381537160738" border="0" /></a><br />While I was clipping some birdcage netting one day, a small piece fell off and landed on my wrist and I thought to myself how cute it would be instead of wearing gloves that cover your ring finger to have a small piece of veiling with maybe a touch of punk.<br /><br />So if anyone reads this and would like to add an opinion of yay or nah, feel free. I really enjoy the offbeat and those that stray from the norm. It gives me a chance to be creative and possibly come up with something that maybe, just maybe, somebody else hasn't.<br /><br />I will probably be making more of these cuffs and maybe some not so bridal and maybe just fun since I really do enjoy that style.Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-19972550248796569772009-06-01T20:46:00.000-07:002009-06-01T20:58:32.994-07:00What a Sale!If you have a walmart by you and you want to save some money on wedding items, check out their wedding section.

It's really funny how I acquired such a thing. If you have read my blogs then you will see I went to a penny party some time ago and not only did I win the George Forman Grill but also this birdcage. When I got the birdcage though it was not painted in desirable colors for a wedding. It was pasteled all over from green to yellow to pink and blue. It looked like an easter egg. Well here it is now in white and purple, which are the colors of the wedding of course. Plus I added a glitter paint overtop the purple to give it a starlight effect. I have some faux doves to put in the center when I find a dow the right size for it. The theme of the wedding is doves which stems from one of our first dates.<br /><br />When we had first got together we were taking a walk outside my house and two doves came by and perched on the edge of the swimming pool right next to us and then we had our first kiss. It was kind of a sign for us and it actually has continued that way throughout our relationship to the point where when I found out I was pregnant we saw to doves with a baby dove. I know that sounds really weird but hey that's my life, lol. Actually, we are going to get matching dove tattoos as well. I can't wait.Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08491662687125842711noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043509512583679248.post-8203344163393394932009-05-20T07:20:00.000-07:002009-05-20T16:24:17.701-07:00Muse Blessed<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNCSUR5na4k83fagcPyYb5m-Wvjcs46SOok23Fm8eL9pyvs25H-6azQgH526PMp2fx8OANCWfpfsX50kj827ObNIUqSa8Dvtka5uVXvyj3pqSlsGijIAfRe7ButRAJouVZBMRLIDPt4ns/s1600-h/russian+076.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 319px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNCSUR5na4k83fagcPyYb5m-Wvjcs46SOok23Fm8eL9pyvs25H-6azQgH526PMp2fx8OANCWfpfsX50kj827ObNIUqSa8Dvtka5uVXvyj3pqSlsGijIAfRe7ButRAJouVZBMRLIDPt4ns/s320/russian+076.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337911207035119266" border="0" /></a>I was feeling inspired yesterday and just started creating some new items including this feathered tri-leaf design and I absolutely love the new birdcage veil with the little blue flowers.
